As we are in serious times, where is the New Babylon.

USA

China

Other

Brothers and sisters in Christ. As the Lord knows me inside out. These things I say, is for the love of Christ and all of you. Not to confuse or mislead anyone, Oh father forbid in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.. I have to give account to my Lord Jesus, how I construct the time he gives me on this Earth. I cannot in anyway keep silent. The Lord has led me to believe that the United States of America is the great prostitute, The new Babylon. It has spread her era's all over the world ,it has led the world with everything that is against Our Father and his son our Lord Jesus Christ. Even the smallest third world countries in world including mine in far away valleys ,have been contaminated . With its lust and greed, and selfishness even in the hearts of the poorest economicly and in the faith. Brothers and sisters in Christ. Forgive me if what I say hurts you or confuse in anyway. I say these things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, for his glory, with the father to guide all of us in his spirit. That we can be ready and working when he comes, or he calls us to him, may Our Lord Jesus Christ keep you always in his peace.

Thank you. Many people believe that The New Babylon is the US and the Whore of The New Babylon is NYC. Maybe they are correct. I think that New Babylon is Rome and the Whore of Babylon is the Vatican, but this will occur after the AC and FP are in reign BUT with that said, both scenarios could be correct. Some people believe what is stated in scripture is similar to how we feel about history, "History repeats itself". I lean towards Rome and the Vatican because we have so many approved prophecies (and unapproved) which talk about Rome being destroyed and the Pope needing to flee the Vatican.

On another note about the Book of Revelation, which countries represent Gog and Magog? I think it is quite possible that Gog is Russia (I think many believe that) and that China is Magog (some believe this). And I find it very interesting that many new prophecies have Russia and China attacking the US but I wonder if this is something that will happen after the Era of Peace when Satan has been released and goes to Gog and Magog to form an army for battle. So where does the US fit in? Not certain. Maybe by electing Trump this will give us a longer Era of Peace? It seems as though if that is the case, a large scale war will eventually break out with quite possibly Russia and China allied against the US.

I do agree with Padraig that the Book of Revelation is not easily deciphered by any means.

It is very easy to know according to Genesis 10, the origin of nations. The modern genetics is proof.
Magog is ancestor according to Jewish tradition of Scythians, and according national traditions of Hungarians, Huns, Mongols. And this is invention of the genetics

You are descendants of Gomer But we, Slavs, are from Madai according to our and Jewish tradition.

Revelation is very easy to understand for someone, who got a gift from God. The key to all prophecies in Bible is in Notebooks of Maria Valtorta

I find most of this "Stuff" all very interesting but discount most of it.... and guess most of that most is just confusing chaff-n-chatter!.
The Lord said there would be SIGNS ...... and the Cities and Woods are full of them. I'll say again!! Do we really need anymore!!?? How many people here and elsewhere are waiting for some "Special Sign". It seems to me that The Lord will make His Signs simple and easy to understand ... just as His Message on Earth 2,000 years ago was simple and easy to understand. Too many folks are making it difficult and confusing! Ya don't have to be a Rocket Scientist or PhD in Math to Get-it .... quite the contrary. Did not Jesus say come to Him as children. Simple Faith is all He asks I believe............. I also guess that The Lord will admonish many Church Leaders, of all faiths, one day by asking: Why did you make it so difficult for others to come to ME!??

I want to remind you that in the bible St Peter and St Paul spoke about the antichrist as mystery Babylon because of persecution. Mystery Babylon was called that so nobody would understand them. They were speaking of the Israelis. At the time, Israelis were spying on Christians and handing them to the Romans to be killed.

Truly, if you want to know, what the great Babylon means, you have to look inside yourself. Every single man is a part of this city. If someone tells, that Babylon is Russia, China, USA, he can have always only partial truth. The building blocks of this spiritual City are sins of individuals. Hatred, pride, lust, selfishness, idolary of selves...
These are building the City, where the people are not able to understand and love each other, therefore it got an apt name - Babylon. And since it is widespread worldwide, it can be called the Great.

Really nobody? Nobody without God's grace. Who has understanding, he understands almost all Revelation at the right time. Since this Babylon shall be destroyed by Second Pentecost, consider what the Babylon means...

Glory be to our Father in heaven always , through our Lord Jesus Christ . As all prophecies in the past, were fully understood at the time they were being furfilled. Many generations past after many prophecies were prophesied , and the people thought it was going to happen in there own time. I believe this was a good thing because the next-generations were being tought about all the prophesies. Generation to Generations. This was in God's plan, so when the time came for these prophesies to be furfilled. God's to chosen people will fully understand them, and believe in the word of our Father in heaven .

This reminds me of what Archbishop Fulton Sheen said in 1950: “We are living in the days of the Apocalypse–the last days of our era…. The two great forces of the Mystical Body of Christ and the Mystical Body of Antichrist are beginning to draw up the battle lines for the catastrophic contest.” (Flynn T & L. The Thunder of Justice. Maxkol Communications, Sterling, VA, 1993, p. 20)
He also said: “The False Prophet will have a religion without a cross. A religion without a world to come. A religion to destroy religions. There will be a counterfeit church. Christ’s Church [the Catholic Church] will be one. And the False Prophet will create the other.The false church will be worldly ecumenical, and global. It will be a loose federation of churches. And religions forming some type of global association. A world parliament of churches. It will be emptied of all divine content and will be the mystical body of the Antichrist. The mystical body on earth today will have its Judas Iscariot and he will be the false prophet. Satan will recruit him from among our bishops.”

Archbishop Fulton Sheen on Antichrist:

“The Antichrist will not be so called; otherwise he would have no followers. He will not wear red tights, nor vomit sulphur, nor carry a trident nor wave an arrowed tail as Mephistopheles in Faust. This masquerade has helped the Devil convince men that he does not exist. When no man recognizes, the more power he exercises. God has defined Himsel as "I am Who am," and the Devil as "I am who am not."
Nowhere in Sacred Scripture do we find warrant for the popular myth of the Devil as a buffoon who is dressed like the first "red." Rather is he described as an angel fallen from heaven, as "the Prince of this world," whose business it is to tell us that there is no other world. His logic is simple: if there is no heaven there is no hell; if there is no hell, then there is no sin; if there is no sin, then there is no judge, and if there is no judgment then evil is good and good is evil. But above all these descriptions, Our Lord tells us that he will be so much like Himself that he would deceive even the elect--and certainly no devil ever seen in picture books could deceive even the elect. How will he come in this new age to win followers to his religion?
The pre-Communist Russian belief is that he will come disguised as the Great Humanitarian; he will talk peace, prosperity and plenty not as means to lead us to God, but as ends in themselves. . . .

I think it's becoming quite apparent who the "false prophet" is he resides in Rome, as devout Catholics we have to pray for our church and be strong to fight this evil and remember we will always be Catholics maybe at times not Roman Catholics

I don't agree with this. For all his faults, Pope Francis is not the False Prophet. I believe that he has a genuine concern for the poor and a mistaken belief that easing people's conscience on sin will draw them close to God. While he is surely permitting what appears to be heretical practice and teaching, he isn't mandating it. We have some way to go before we see the False Prophet of Revelation. We have been heading in the direction of accepting such a prophet for centuries. The Church has been softening its approach to the permanence of marriage for centuries, starting with allowing annulments for the wealthy and influential. These compromises always start with pleasing a select few of the elite and then spread throughout the Church. Now it's the turn of the wealthy Germans to use their financial clout.

It could take a few more generations before we see the False Prophet. Remember that the faith had already been on the wane in most of the regions buying the false mercy message. The Church is growing in regions of Africa and Asia where people still hold to traditional family values. When the False Prophet appears on the scene, the Universal Church will be weakened. The time to grab the blessed candles and head for the hills will be when apostasy strikes Africa and a lot of Africa has yet to be evangelised before that happens.

Amen to that, but we cannot in any way put our faith in any man, according to scriptures and also says the antichrist will sit in God's throne here on earth. Our faith shall always and only be in our Lord Jesus Christ, and through his spirit and the intercession of our Blessed Mother, we will never be deceived.

Many Protestant and evangelical leaders have published myriad of books with these popular western opinions regarding Babylon and the Harlot, Gog and Magog. I read many of them. All I believe to sell books to westerners wondering where we all fall into place in the fulfillment of end times events instead of looking to their Bibles and asking God for insight. Many who are simply wolves in sheeps clothing. In the Protestant case it is a given how they will label Rome.

Isaiah names several cities Kedar, Tema, Dedan and Dumah that coincide with the destruction of Babylon. ALL of them are in the ME and resided in present day Saudi Arabia. No Arab will pitch his tent there, no shepherd will rest his flocks there (Isaiah 13:20)
This city is one that sits on many waters. Tell me how many waters surround Rome? Isaiah also refers to it as The desert by the sea. Is there a desert in Italy?

The Kaba is fit in a covering made from hundreds of kilo's of gold, pearls, silver, jewels. I know that Rome has wealth, I also know that Rome and the RCC is the largest distributor of charity to the world in the form of Hospitals, schools, feeding the poor, the list is endless of its good works.

Revelation 18 speaks that all the Saints will rejoice over her destruction. Will anyone rejoice over the destruction of Rome or of America? Have either of these places committed acts which would cause people such righteous hatred? Have the blood of Prophets and Saints been found in either?

SA has held the entire world hostage with its wealth in oil. It has spread its lies around the globe. On the streets there one will find literally shop after shop that does nothing but sell gold and jewels and finery of all kinds. Also this same nation enslaves people and violates the dignity God has assigned mankind. It is literally rampant. No Christian is even allowed to go to Mecca. By punishment of death! All nations have been deceived by it.

Think also about who worships this. Consider all the leaders of the world who bow and kiss the hand of the King of this Nation and why. Now consider all those leaders and how they act toward the United States. They ALL want to change it into their likeness. Every single one. No bowing, no scraping going on here. Shoot, Americans have always been seen as ignorant idiots lol.

Even other Muslims hate them precisely for their perversion of Islam. Look at where Iran has aimed its missiles for the last decade and who is fighting a proxy war with them via Yemen.

Gog - Magog? Turkey, Iran.

“What I see around me would drive me insane, if I did not know that no matter what happens, God will have the last word” – St Paisios

Brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus, blessings to you all through our Lord Jesus Christ. There are a lot of places that can be called Babylon in these times, but there certain precise scriptures that identifies the new Babylon. One example is Babylon is the city or nation that the kings ruled the world. Where do all kings of the World meet to pressure laws on other countries? Second Babylon is the city or Nation that all languages are spoken. Third Nation's of the world have made wealth by Babylon buying all kinds of goods. Forth Nations have been drunken with her sins, meaning a country who has promoted things that are against God Commandments, and other countries have followed there footsteps. Fifth It is a young nation. Sixth Babylon is a country who was born in its early stages with witchcraft.
